The system is booted with a NUMA node has no memory attaching to it (memory-less NUMA node), also with NR_CPUS less than CPUs presented in MADT, so CPUs on this memory-less node are not brought up, and this NUMA node will not be online too. But the ITS attaching to this NUMA domain is still valid and represented via SRAT to ITS driver.
This is really the corner case which is triggered by the boot testing when enabling our D06 boards, but it's a bug :)
Thanks Hanjun
